Hello Everyone, I have a

core

module that will be hardened, and it contains two submodules:

control_unit

and

datapath

. In the

core

module, I’m defining the power pins with the following conditional compilation directive:

`ifdef USE_POWER_PINS
    inout vccd1;
    inout vssd1;
`endif

Is it necessary to add this same conditional directive for power pins in each of the submodules (

control_unit

and

datapath

)? Or is it sufficient to include power pins only in the top-level

core

module that will be hardened?
